"Pyrethrum is the material of choice that MosquitoNix uses in their mosquito misting systems because it is one of those materials that has a low toxicity to humans, pets and other animals but is a mosquito killer. When it is released into the environment, it breaks down very quickly. When the sun is shining it breaks down extremely quickly and there are no residues left over. That was one of the reasons behind the use of pyrethrum in MosquitoNix systems."

"In addition, MosquitoNix dilutes natural pyrethrum to under .035% active ingredient during the misting systems spray cycles. During these cycles, enough active ingredient is released in the target area to effectively neutralize the breeding cycle of the mosquito. MosquitoNix also targets its spray times to when mosquitos are the most active, which is typically dusk and dawn proving a mosquito repellent. You can always count on the experts at MosquitoNix to pride themselves on being good stewards of the solutions they use."
